Translating a user manual or a marketing collateral piece into the target language does not mean that the product is ready to serve the market. It’s only the half challenge, and then comes the Desktop Publishing, a last phase of any localization project. A simple “Copy and Paste” of design will not do it right. Desktop Publishing in multiple languages can be very challenging in regards of using right software, platform, and adept DTP personnel. It may require necessary guidelines and right process to be adopted when designing documents are intended for localization.

As a Multilingual Desktop Service Provider, Webdunia has developed a comprehensive DTP process from pre-processing the document to post-processing and quality checks for the best results. Furthermore, Our DTP specialists work in all formats and platforms and are skilled in multilingual publishing.

Understanding the Process
Multilingual Desktop Publishing comprises of 6 major steps, these are:
• Extraction of source language text for translation in a translatable format that is readable to translators e.g., Word, RTF, or TXT format.
• Localization of source language text into the desired target language
• Insertion of translated text into the target language version of the document
• Adjusting and formatting of localized text to match the original; complying with target-language standards. Features like hyphenation, punctuation, page breaking, adjustment of text elements for complete display, table of content and index may need to be generated. Also, if there are hyperlinks and inline images, they may have to be restored.
• DTP quality assurance checks
• Generation of PostScript and PDF files for online and print publication

For the successful completion of the DTP process there are some essential rules and guidelines which take under close consideration followed to avoid many problems. These guidelines are especially crucial if the same source document will be translated into multiple target languages. The adjustment of the source document layout may become an imperative to keep costs and lead time down.

• DTP translation from English to any other foreign language take up 30% more space, so the page layout needs to have adequate white space for increasing or decreasing text lengths. It’ll help DTP experts to maintain consistency in font size, characters, and line spacing. Also, allows them to add new pages if require.
• Use of style sheet and paragraph style helps a foreign typesetter to keep layout and position of text and images consistent across the document.
• It is advisable to use simple fonts that can support all the characters of the target language; adopting fancy font families may replace characters that will further cause text inaccuracy. Maximum use of OpenType fonts reduces the cross-platform conversion issues.
• Share all the necessary source files including fonts, graphs, charts, which are used to create the original document. If layers with text and images are used to create unique effects, it is crucial to provide native files in an editable format in order to well-develop the document in the target language.
• Design of the document should be kept simple and light weight. High resolution images may give a great visual deal to a document but heavy load of images can present big challenges in the DTP process and make it more lengthy and expensive.
• Not all icons and images are understood in the same way by readers from different countries, cultures, and languages. Images, symbols, gestures, and colors should be wisely selected while creating the document to ensure that they are not inappropriate or offensive to your global readers. For instances: “red color” is associated with both love and war; “thumbs-up” gestures is usually apprehend as “well-done” but in some countries it may be constructed as an inflammatory insult.

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERPs) system is one of your key IT assets to automate business practices and streamlining processes.

ERPs Localization means adapting ERPs software to different languages and regional variances. It is the process of translating an ERPs product /manual in other languages for adapting the language for a specific country or region. There are various ERP packages available and are well known as SAP, Oracle , Tally etc.

ERPs localization is much more different from other kinds of localization tasks since there are different modules which do not present a cohesive picture as software strings do. While it is easier to decipher software functionality by looking at the localizable strings, it is not so in the case of ERPs strings.

There are different modules, and so different containers which hold the strings. Generally, since these strings concatenate to create a full scenario, they can connect in more ways than one, and that poses a challenge. Also, ERPs has many different departments catered, which means there are hundreds of different scenarios in which these strings may be presented, resulting in an increased challenge for localizers.

Consumers get easily engaged with advertisements; whether print, TV or digital; this induces a strong desire towards product and eventually affects their buying decision.

The world is exceptionally vibrant, rather than monotonous society, which calls for greater acceptance and celebration of differences, be it within the nation or beyond it. In this colorful world, localization is like a performer, performs across culture, ethnicity and language of the targeted country. Previously, localization was predominantly performed on written material viz. product manuals, user guides, training materials, etc. As the world has become progressively unified, there is a rising tendency for language transfer in audiovisual media.

Today is the age of multimedia; it is all around us. We share a major part of our lives with Multimedia or it is affluence by components of multimedia. Multimedia is an accretion of written, audio and visual channels. Multimedia translation thus implies not only film/movie translation, but also audio and video media, theater, comics, and today more modern on-line and off-line products and services (such as web pages, CDroms, DVDs, computer games).

Although audiovisual (or multimedia) translation may not have been discussed much until recently, in the last 20 years, awareness of the importance of this kind of communication has grown considerably because the development of new technologies. Eventually, Multimedia or Audiovisual Translation is not a separate niche, or a subcategory of “actual” translation, the one that deals with words printed on paper.

It’s no wonder that many businesses large or small want to use it for a variety of reasons: employee training, sales presentations, to educate customers, communication, promotions, advertisements, etc. Nowadays, both in marketing and technical communication, clients understand how multimedia content enhances the impact of their messages. Effective use of audio-visual aids staggeringly enhances message efficiency, making it easily comprehendible without any ambiguity and misinterpretation. If we look around, we realize that whether it is an animated cartoon film, an infotainment video, mobile/video game, webinar, graphics, sound clip, or a movie; all are the examples of Multimedia, majorly accessible via internet. All these information need to be appropriately translated in multiple languages to make them accessible across wider /global audience. Thus, it is necessary to have high-quality multimedia translation especially for the entertainment and media industry.

Adding an audio piece to a website, or a video to an e-learning course, increases the attention span by 50%, while making a lasting impression on the audience. For instance:

Tom & Jerry, a renowned animates series, has been released in 24 countries across world in their native languages.

Lately popular Japanese cartoon series for children – Doraemon has been broadcasted in more than 30 languages

Google, Facebook and YouTube rank as first, second and third in web globalization, for a total of 130, 75, 28 languages respectively.

The most popular American-British feature film, Harry Potter, has been translated in 69 languages.

Employee grooming sessions by management experts are available in many languages on the web, and are been used by corporates globally

Multimedia localization comprises of real-time data (audio-visuals) translation, hence it needs to be done with extensive expertise to get the finest results. It’s easy to translate mere text into any language but multimedia translation requires additional skills and expertise in that the specifics of the final audio, video or animation delivery need to be carefully planned for.Thus, there is a specialized handling required for all types of multimedia translation services that help a company to provide the best quality service.

Many companies and business houses has therefore realized the value of multimedia translation and look for professional translator to get it localized impeccably.

Knowledge is powerful, highly precious and extensive; available everywhere across globe. But language barriers graft the disparities for people to gather and comprehend the knowledge. Thus desire to know has made this knowledge accessible amongst global audience in their native language by the means of language translation. Sharing and spreading that vast hidden knowledge, of every discipline, has contributed significantly to development of the world culture.

Translation is not only a linguistic act, but also a cultural-ethnical act; played a significant role throughout history whenever there has been difference between two languages and cultures. And every time different cultures have produced written text, with the help of skilled translators, to expose with and get assimilated with each other. The need for translation has existed since primeval time and translating crucial literary works from one language into another has curtailed the communication boundaries between two countries.

In a vast and diverse country like India, where plurality is its trademark, translation has always been a prime means of communication. Perhaps the most notable examples of Indian translation history are that of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, two great epics, found in most languages of the subcontinent. Since then, literary translation has been contributing in spreading Indian culture globally. But, till late 1990s translation was restrained to literary translation only. Furthermore, in India, localization and translation has been considered as the same phenomenon until early 2000s when Localization, distinctly, started setting up its roots in India.

With the globalization, many foreign companies have tried to cover Indian market for their products and services, but lack of awareness about localization in the Indian markets has created hindrance to a great extent. Later, in 2000, the concept of Localization has been introduced by Webdunia with the localization of Microsoft Windows 2000 and Office 2003 in the official language of the country – “Hindi” and later in 12 regional languages, to name them, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Telugu, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengali, Oriya, Assamese, and Konkani. Since then the chain has been going on and on.

Though Webdunia has started focusing on software localization initially but slowly and steadily the company has spread wings across diverse functional and technical domains, such as – gaming, multimedia, e-learning, e-commerce, legal & patents, life sciences, and so on. Encyclopedia Britannica, Cipla, YouTube are a few of the instances that explicate the expedition of Webdunia. Along with 22 Indian languages, lately, the company has added a number of Asian and European languages to its portfolio. In the recent years, Webdunia has been reinforcing their exchanges with foreign counterparts as well as promulgating cognizance of its skills and expertise.
